July 11, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) — British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen impersonated a disabled military veteran to trick Sarah Palin into an interview meant to be humiliating, the former Alaska governor and GOP vice presidential nominee claimed Tuesday.

Via a request from a speakers bureau, “my daughter and I were asked to travel across the country where Cohen (I presume) had heavily disguised himself as a disabled U.S. veteran, fake wheelchair and all,” Palin explained on her website. “Out of respect for what I was led to believe would be a thoughtful discussion with someone who had served in uniform, I sat through a long ‘interview’ full of Hollywoodism’s disrespect and sarcasm – but finally had enough and literally, physically removed my mic and walked out, much to Cohen’s chagrin.”
